Spark!
[#203]
Telling StoriesSince the dawn of history, artists have been telling stories through words, pictures, and music. In this episode of Spark, we meet artists who are continuing the tradition, fusing ancient and contemporary techniques and content.* Larry Reed's Dangerous Flowers - For the past thirty years, Larry Reed has dedicated himself to the study and practice of the ancient Balinese art of shadow puppetry. He has become a master of this traditional storytelling form, using it to tell tales from many different cultures, and adapting it for contemporary audiences with the addition of modern multi-media technology. Spark is there as he debuts his latest work, a traditional Balinese tale called Dangerous Flowers, in which he plays 40 different characters. His performance is accompanied by the Bay Area's Gamelan Sekar Jaya, the most acclaimed gamelan orchestra in the United States.* Marc Bamuthi Joseph - Marc Bamuthi Joseph is a modern day griot (African storyteller) who tells his original stories through a combination of acting, spoken word, movement and rap. A four-time national Poetry Slam winner, Bamuthi got his start on Broadway at the age of 9. He was featured on the critically acclaimed HBO spoken word series, Russell Simmons Def Poetry Jam; and Spark follows along as he develops his first full-length solo theatrical work, Word Becomes Flesh, a meditation on his new role as a single father.* Fire in Heaven - Asian storytellers Brenda Wong Aoki and Mark Izu collaborate with Cherokee storyteller Gayle Ross in a performance of Fire In Heaven: An Evening of Cherokee and Pacific Ghost Stories. Set to jazz koto music played by June Kuramoto, the work combines the oral traditions and mythical archetypes of many ancient cultures to create a fresh and entirely contemporary performance style.duration 25:50

But Eyjafjallajokull was just the start. Now, an Icelandic volcano 10 times bigger, Katla, has begun to swell and grumble. Two more giants, Hekla and Laki, could erupt without warning.
